Fewer and fewer of those crazy goalies

Rocky Mountain News has a piece on the extinguishing breed of crazy hockey goaltenders and their weird routines. It's worthwhile reading in its entirety. I was especially taken aback by this:

"[Jacques] Plante knitted in the locker room and Glenn Hall threw up before games and Gary Smith had to shower between every period."

Maybe it's not that bad, after all. That there are fewer and fewer of them, I mean :).
